Verizon adds 34 markets to its 4G network, will cover 75 percent of U.S. population

The country’s top carrier, Verizon Wireless, happens to be the one that has the largest 4G LTE coverage in the country as well. As announced today on its website, Verizon is introducing its high-speed Internet network to 34 new markets, while expanding in 38 existing markets on August 16.

Other U.S. carriers can only look with envy as Verizon flexes its 4G LTE network muscles. With a total of 371 markets, Verizon claims that it now covers more than 75 percent of US population.

For those wondering whether they can enjoy 4G speed on their device yet, here’s the complete list of the new markets:

Blah blah, Market after market but in the real world what does this really matter. Especially when all Verizon and it’s CDMA LTE NETWORK does nothing but drains battery life dry. Not to mention the pitiful piss poor signal strength and crappy reception on most of it’s LTE handsets. I don’t here them speaking of the poor Dbm and asu which in turn means Lte is useless. Ask all the current Galaxy Nexus owners how they feel about the overrated and overpriced Lte network and service they receive. People who are on Verizon are brain washed they remind me of apple iphone users misguided. Here in New York City Tmobile pimp slaps Verizon all day long plain and simple.

Wow. We get excellent Verizon LTE 4G and extremely high speeds. A one-time $4 fee for an extra battery is WELL worth the price.

I miss T-Mobile.. at least I had a signal in my home with them. Verizon is for the sheep, yarrellray is spot on.
Sprint is no better. Wish I had stayed with T-Mobile, even if they treated me like a second-rate customer due to Flex-pay.

I had sprint too. Poor cdma signal as well. These cdma Lte network carriers have low frequency so signal doesn’t penetrate like the GSM carrier Tmobile.. My friend get back to Tmobile I kicked both Sprint and Verizon to the curb Tmobile is where I will stay…

*UPDATE* almost 2 years later lol…

I jumped on T-Mobile’s offer to pay my ETF and got the heck away from Sprint! Seems like a bad dream that is finally over… lol. Saving $75 right out the gate and getting 40 mb/s at home (almost 2x as fast as my hard wired Comcast high speed internet), compared to the between 3 and 5 mb/s I got with Sprint. Call quality is amazing, have to experience HD voice to hear the difference – no more dropped calls and terrible call quality. Battery now lasts easily a day and a half (no more battery being drained because I didn’t have any signal at all for up to 20% of the day, everyday) and I just wish I had made this move 2 years ago. I’ve missed you, T-MOBILE!!
